Who: Miah and anyone else!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Aboard the Huntress, if you really want it
When: Now

[Miah is looking into the camera, back to wearing her full plate armor to address the fleet.]

Good evening. I seek any in this fleet capable of smithing. It has been too long since I have held a sword, and I like not the feel of the so-called 'weapons' the Atroma have provided us. If any are capable of crafting a blade for me, or the tools and materials with which I may forge my own, I would be grateful. I lack the means to pay with coin, but I may offer payment in the form of labor or trade.

Thank you for listening.

But I will forsake none who need me.

... Why do you ask that?

[takeabow]

We don't have people like that where I'm from. Not officially.

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

Nor did we, until me. To my knowledge, I am the first free Paladin.

However, any Paladin would defend those in need.

video;

[takeabow]

What's a paladin, anyway?

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

One who bends their knee to a higher cause, offering their sword and shield with no promise nor need for reward. Normally, they are the elite guard of the Sultana, but as a free Paladin, I owe her no allegiance beyond our friendship.

[takeabow]

Why are you free if you're her friend?

[curiositykilledthecats]

... It is a long and sad tale, involving centuries of treachery.

To skip that part... I am no citizen of Ul'dah. And my organization owes allegiance to no country, as we are to go wherever a Primal threat arises to defeat it. We will tarry not with a single city-state's self-serving interests.

Oh.

I don't really understand, but I don't think I'm going to.

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

I apologize. I have no skill at teaching.

video;

[takeabow]

I don't have a lot of skill at learning.

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

Mayhap you have had the wrong teachers.

video;

[takeabow]

Maybe. It was kind of a joke.

Re: video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

... Oh.

[Awkward cat.]

I... apologize. I am not terribly good with humor.

video;

[takeabow]

That's fine. I'm used to people not getting my humor. Or me getting others.

Re: video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

It must be especially difficult in a place such as this, with the cultures of vastly different worlds mingling.

video;

[takeabow]

Yeah. It happened at the last place, too.

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

"The last place"?

video;

[takeabow]

Yeah. We were at a place kind of... similar to this? Before. Called Aather.

Re: video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

Similar to this?

video;

[takeabow]

Not my home, lots of people from lots of places? But not in space.

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

It sounds an interesting place.

video;

[takeabow]

It was fine, I guess. More nature there but they took away our memories at the beginning.

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

...

Was it a place of 'teams', where wicked gods forced slaughter to regain what is rightfully yours?

video;

[takeabow]

I wouldn't say they were wicked, and the slaughter only happened sometimes.

video;

[curiositykilledthecats]

I see.

... I was never at such a place myself, but my dear companion was trapped in such a realm for many moons.
